Military officials are continuing to search for six missing Marines off the coast of Japan. The Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force found one Marine about seven hours after a C-130 tanker was refueling an F-18 fighter jet during a training exercise. The two U.S. aircraft collided during the procedure. The rescued Marine is being examined and an investigation into the crash has started.
